dafd9718b0 kn mark net/barrier BROKEN, old software wants old devel/gtest
Their CMake goo includes bundles missing from the autogenerated tarball, there is no knob to disable tests, we don't run them (NO_TEST=yes), but instead nuke the CMake goo and hope for system gtest to work, which now fails due to newer devel/gtest requiring C++17. barrier is C++14, its last release is five years old and we're behind, upstream's last commit was four years ago...
